. -pqpuuq.--S.. SENIOR CLASS HISTORY As we look back into the past, twelve years ago, we find that on September 3, I935, fifty-nine stu- dents started to school at Olney and Lark Schools. Of this total, thirty-nine of the students started at Olney School and the remaining twenty students started at Lark School. Of this total of fifty-nine students there were only thirty-three who began their Freshman year at Olney. Beginning our Freshman year was like turning over a new leaf, it was all a different experience for all of us. We were all busy choosing subiects which would help us in fitting ourselves for a position in later life. VVe never thought then, and also going back to the first grade of school, of how many of the same members of cur class would be left with us on the r-ight of our graduation from High School. On the night of May 27, 'I947, we, after dwin- dling down to a class consisting of seventeen graduates, passed through the doors of Olney High School, never to return again as students, though we will return again in our memories of our school days, both happy and unhappy. Cpening the book of the past, we recall the laughter and gaiety that was present the night of our Senior Play, A Date With Judy , and the wcnderful performance displayed by Betty Taylor, cast as Judy Foster, and Howard Adkins, cast as Oogie Pringle, also the marvelous cast that as- sisted in making this farce a success. In our midst, we have a King and a Queen, known and loved by the students and alumni of Olney High School. Popularity King, Howard Ad- kins, Popularity Queen, Mary Ann Mauder. The Annual Popularity Dance was held May 9, 1947. Their attendants were Patricia Allred, Patricia Nagy, Ruth Dunmyer, Olis Sutter, Paul Kimball, and Bill Moulton. I Robert King, who is Valedictorian, and Mary Swartz, who is Salutatorian, receive much credit from our class for the good grades worked for by them, to qualify for such high honors. We are all proud of Olis Sutter, one of the captains of our basketball team, who made all- county guard. We are also very proud of the other members of our class that did a wonderful iob on our team. With the money we received from our Junior Jitneys, Junior Dances ,and our biggest event of our Junior year, which was Double or Nothing , we were able to give the Seniors of '46 a success- ful Banquet and Prom, held at the Maumee River Yacht Club. The former students whom we were fortunate in having with our class within the' past four years are as follows: Barbara Balusik, after finishing her Junior year, surprised our class by not coming back to grad- uate. She is now working at the Toledo Hothouse Cooperative Association. Violet B-:nose left us in her Sophomore year to work at the White Tower Hamburger. Leona Boose, whose name has been changed to Mrs. Jack Whittier, left us in her Freshsman year. Jeanne Farmer moved away from Olney in her Sophomore year to attend Waite High School. Eileen Sutherland, after finishing her Freshman year, went to work at Save Electric Company. Robert Ames finished his .lunior year and then joined the Army. Michael Elekonich left after his Freshman year and then attended Clay High School. Fritz Everhardt finished his Sophomore year and is now working at Larro Feed Mill. Richard Everhardt left Olney after his Sopho- more year and is now working at Fassett Sohio Gasoline Station. Jim Fredericks left in his Freshman year and started work. Donald Hall left after his Junior year and is now serving in the Navy. Don Holland left in his Sophomore year and is now serving in the Marines. Joe Selmek left in his Junior year and started to work. As I bring this Class History to an end, the memories, which are the memories that will last, will be treasured in our minds and hearts, will never be forgotten by the Class of '47. Patricia Stanger
